Energy Suspension 8.9104R rear bump stops in place of front bump stops

[ChildrenOfBodom]

Hello,

James here from Energy Suspension.... very cool to see forum members making their own adaptations!

Something to look for in the future, this is still a little while off, but the new Rockflex bump stop is going to be available for 4Runners around the end of the year. It's a progressive rate bump that will give you the same rate as an MCU bump at first, then gradually stiffen up. You won't feel a hard hit, rather, a smooth engagement.

We have already released the bump for the Jeep JL, it has a molded in metal washer base that will allow you to use it with almost any single-bolt application. We have plans to release it for Toyota later this year, but early adopters have already fitted them to the 4Runners.

Part number has been released, but I'm not at work right now. I'll have to post it later. It just barely arrived to market.

Here's a video from the SEMA show for their debut on the JL.

The very next adaptation of this part will be a Toyota IFS version and a rear two-bolt adapted version. The kicker will be the new rear coil bumps featuring rock-flex, that will fit 3rd-5th generation 4Runners.

We also already make high-articulation 3-piece rear arm bushings for 3rd and 4th gen factory arms, I've got approval to bring in a 5th gen to our facility for R&D sometime this year.

I managed to get hold of some of the JL prototypes, lobbed off the top of them, then tested them out on my 3rd gen IFS at the Hammers with great results. Can't wait to get an IFS specific version to market!

Yeah I was aware of that brand as well but was looking at cheaper alternative solutions. I never felt my rear bottom out before so I didn't give much research into a rear bump stop set.

Make it affordable and it will sell like hotcakes.

I kind of discovered these on accident while searching for other parts. So I rolled the dice and tried out Energy Suspension 8.9104R rear bump stops in place of my front bump stops. They worked well for me on a recent trip to Barnwell Mountain, it will bolt right on, all hardware fits. I know it says rear bump stops but that didn't prevent me from trying them up front.

For thise shopping around, I'll add that Wheeler's Superbumps bump stops have been good with me so far. For rears, Icon hydarulic bumpstops are the way to go, but $$

You know I never realized that this thread was in the 5th gen sub-forum. Can’t really tell when you are on the app. Anyhow, will this work for the 4th gen Runner?

So what is the jeep part number for these?

I believe they will. If someone can compare Toyota parts numbers we might be able to confirm.

Or just order it and let us know.

What size bump stop (front) for what size lift? Thanks!

 

[Akkording]

They are 2.5 inches tall. I would say it would benefit any type of extra lift. I'm not sure how these would fit for stock suspension though. It was stated earlier the stock bumps are 1 inch tall, I threw mine away and didn't measure them, should of.

 

[perf0rmance]

Bump for an old thread (no PUN intended.... or was there?)

Any update regarding these bump stops? I'm looking to get a set soon to match up to my KINGs

 

[TheWraith]

Thank you for the recommendation ... I ordered mine today ...

Any updates on these ???

 

[Jetboy]

FWIW - the rears could be upgraded to the GX460 rear bumps. GX air spring models don't have internal bumps in the air springs, so they put a larger and softer bump on the frame rail. They are around $50 ea.

Gosh darn it man ?!?!

Where were you yesterday!!! Lol

I wish I had this info yesterday... I would have ordered these but ended up with the ToyTech spacer.

 

[GBagwell]

The 48036-60011 seems to me to be the ticket. I might need to order me up some of those. I'd love to see a photo of it installed on a 4th Gen. I think it would suit the 1.5 inch lift I have on the rear with what looks like a spacer built in. Thanks for the Heads up.

I was going to order GX stocks ones but I knew Eibach rear bump stops would be available this year. I got my bach bumps at an introductory price. I figured I would benefit more with the longer design since I'm closer to ~2.5" rear lift and being poly instead of hard rubber. I do like how the stock GX bumps are curved.

link? i'd like to buy as well

 

[Akkording]

I called Eibach sales directly and spoke to Tanner, they weren't available separately online at the time since it was part of their new adjustable rear spring kit.

part # from invoice: AK31-82-071-BMP
I'm sure you can email Tanner and ask him to set you up [email protected]

 

[TheWraith]

got mine in ... just waiting to get the rig back to install these
